Because Badger basically modeled his current look after Andrew. :roll:

Looks like we're in for another good one so far in Game 5. Fun sequence there with KG blocking Juwan Howard at one end, then Bosh turning back Pierce's shot at the other.

Agree, very fun game so far.

EDIT: LeBron with two huge threes. The Celtics are almost done.

And now the steal and dunk, and then the offensive foul. And that's the game.

A lot of emotion. Boston gets a taste of the medicne. Another era ends. So many this year.

The Celtics left the door open and the Heat took advantage, great resolve for Miami down the stretch. Boston's had the lead for most of the past three games but in the last two the Heat have come up big when it's mattered the most. LeBron certainly exorcised a few demons in the final minutes of Game 5, hats off to him given his baffling meltdowns against the Celtics in Games 5 and 6 last year. This series has certainly made that a distant memory.

Boston did mess up with a couple of really costly turnovers, but the Heat - and LeBron - did step up all the same.

4 points to 6 points lead looked like a big deal in this series until that last few minutes. The Heat definitely were the better team though. Can't wait for the Bulls series to be over now.

It seems Boston was bored and wanted to go home to rest up and get over Perkins being gone.

I doubt the Bulls have much of a chance against the Heat despite homecourt advantage

I just cannot wait for the Bulls(ATL?) VS Heat series. The Bulls possibly could be a better team than the Celtics(whom I thought was the biggest threat in the East despite the record). But I like how the Heat were able to turn it on in the playoffs. Only thing I am bit concerned about is the match ups between the bigs. Noah and Boozer sound like a tough task for Heat's bigs. As for Rose, he has been inconsistent so I think he definitely could be contained to manageable performance although it's inevitable that he'll get his numbers in a few games. Also the Bulls have an advantage on the bench. But I think the trio will come through in the end just like they did in last two series.

I hope the Heat can fit Haslem in the rotation, he'd be good against Boozer.

Howard seeing playing time yesterday was a big surprise, he did alright, but his defensive rotations were woeful.
